Yo bro. I feel you on this recording. However Alan hertz over Rodney Holmes.. Tsk tsk. Come now buddy. Not even close. Yea Alan had it going on here but that's the difference. Alan has it going on here. Not a single Rodney show where Rodney doesn't show up to play. Don't mean to make it a contest or something but I was just taken aback.

Steve at his peak. Hertz absolutely killing it. Onstage mics perfectly suited to the instrumental format. Wildly extended, flowing liquid jazzy jams...YES

I like SK, sometimes love him, but over 20+ years have found his performances to be highly variable to almost an absurd degree. Meaning, I don't like all of it.

This is the one. I love the Ray White KVHW period, but you run through all the top quality recordings pretty quick right? Just give this one a sample and you'll be grabbing it for yourself.

Alan Hertz, I swear to Jeebus that guy had it going ON

This is basically the best-case-scenario Kimock show.

Brilliant, as usual.

I listen to this all the time. Such a great performance and great capture.

All the other reviews have covered what needs to be said....
Heres a link to the video of the gig....

I remember finding this in the bowels of gdlive, when I was just a lad and barely knew a thing about the Grateful Dead or the jam scene. I just knew I was in love with jazz and marijuana, naturally. My first listen to this individual track brought tears to my eyes, and I was then hooked on Steve Kimock and KVHW.

I have been listening to Kimock for 3 years and never have I come across a more delightful set! Africa is amazing!! I recommend to anyone who is new to kimock or to anyone who has been loving his style for years. Cheers to the taper and whomever transfered the set. Bravo!!

One of my favorite pieces of live music of all time, and I am not throwing these words around lightly. Free flowing and wonderful kimock. highly recommended

i stumbled upon this show as i was checking out the shows that samson had reviewed and as i have a sweet spot for recordings of ratdog with kimock and some zero recordings this looked enticing.

this really is a must listen, the band has great chemistry and the music is uptempo, fun, and explorative. they just keep on jammin'. i'm only on "What I Say?" and this tune has been jazzing, rocking, and morphing for probably a half an hour.

Definately a must have! If your not a Kimock fan, give this to someone who is! Its the perfect X-Mas present! I D/L this one last fall and intensionally didn't listen to it until Dec 24 of last year. Made for a most surreal X-mas eve! Great sound and straight up jazz. Who could ask for more!

Kimock playing straight-up jazz is hard to beat, and the song choice is immaculate. What I Say? In A Silent Way?

Many hard-core Kimock freaks consider this the best Kimock performance of 1999, which had LOTS of great KVHW shows -- you be the judge -- thanks to Jim Stiefel of The Panel for the stellar recording, and Syd for the DAE-free transfer.
